Greg Kucera Darren Waterston's "13 Paintings" have the feel of Chinese landscapes set on Jupiter, but there's just something a little too easy to like about these celestial, New Age-y paintings. 212 Third Ave., 206-624-0770. 10:30 a.m.-5:30 p.m. Tues.-Sat. Ends Sat. Nov. 27.

James Harris Jeffry Mitchell's overly sweet work is influenced by the Japanese traditions of sumi and ceramics. 309A Third Ave., 206-903-6220. 10:30 a.m.-5:30 p.m. Tues.-Sat. Ends Sat. Nov. 27.

Crawl Space "Does anyone really need to see another goddamn SOIL or COCA group show?" asks the press kit for "Members Only," yet another goddamn group show— by folks like Gregory Schaffer, Kristen Ramirez, Megan Szczecko, and a cornucopia of other youngsters. 504 E. Denny Way #1 (near Olive), 206-240-6015. Noon-5 p.m. Sat.-Sun.

Howard House Alex Schweder's "Lovesick Buildings" is a brainy exploration of our six senses within buildings. Rubber and resin sculptures take the shape of weird, semi-biological forms—teethlike seats at war with a scattering of resin candies or a decaying amalgam of sugar, resin, and porcelain nipples. A 7- minute video features a mysterious, red-tinted journey by a colonoscopy camera—but rather than inside the, um, rear end, this film is shot in a tub of cherry Jell-O and explores clear glass architectural forms. Trust me, it's not as gross as it sounds. In another piece, a row of scratch-and-sniff wallpaper leads viewers on an olfactory progression from broiled steak to cheese to bread, to a humongous synapselike column of cast rubber. Also on display: abstract works on paper and in collage by Robert Yoder, whose new collage/paintings venture into unusual materials, including vinyl, tape, and nail polish. 604 Second Ave., 206-256-6399. 10:30 a.m.-5 p.m. Tues.-Sat.

Richard Hugo House Local artist Jennifer Gardner incorporates hair into each of her altarlike boxes, reliquaries, and little installations that recall the quirky-odd boxes of Joseph Cornell. Gardner's stuff is more lush in a boudoir sort of way, and slightly more morbid. 1634 11th Ave., 206-322-7030. 9 a.m.-9 p.m. Mon.-Fri., noon-5 p.m. Sat.

Suyama Space Brian Murphy returns with more of his watercolor self-portraits of the sort that wowed the crowds at the old Esther-Claypool space a couple years back. 2324 Second Ave. 206-256-0809. 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Mon.-Fri.

Western Bridge The second part of Henry Art Gallery's ambitious show "Work of the Work" (much of which was mounted with the help of William and Ruth True's Western Bridge collection) showcases art that deals with perception and, for lack of a better term, humanist religiosity. 3412 Fourth Ave. S. 206-838-7444. Noon-6 p.m. Thurs.-Sat.

Wright Exhibition Space This show, curated by Virginia Wright, hopes to revive interest in color field painters Jules Olitski, Morris Louis, Helen Frankenthaler, and Kenneth Noland. Some of the pieces are magnificent in their lush disregard for anything but their own colors: Noland's vast Vista surrounds the viewer with a bath of mauve, while Louis' Mem is a subtle veil of browns. 407 Dexter Ave. N., 206-622-1896. 10 a.m.- 2 p.m. Thursdays.

Seattle Art Museum "Spain in the Age of Exploration 1492–1819" offers a sampling of the dark visions of Velazquez, Zurbaran, El Grego, Goya, and other masters.
